Hello Everyone. This is my first post. I just stumbled across this forum and realized I had a few un-answered questions about 2 of my guitars. I have 2 Vintage Washburns that have no Serial Numbers or Country of Manufacture. 1 is a (84-86?) G6-V Sunburst Color and the other is a Chicago Series KC-90 (See through gold color, 1990?). Both are close to mint condition but without serial numbers Im not sure when or where thy were made or what year they are.. Can anyone help?? Is this normal on some vintage Washburns? Please Reply and thanks in advance for you help! Anthony 352-398-9661

Hi, and welcome to the forum. A couple of nice looking guitars. Unsure of specs for the G6V, but have put a link to the Archives for the year 1990 for your made in Japan KC 90. I've had a few of this model, still got two, one same see through gold colour, the other red. Really nice guitars Factory fitted with S.D. pups.

Thanks for the link. Do your 90's have serial numbers? Has there been any re-issues of this model? Have you ever seen any fakes out there? Sorry for all of the questions, but I have many un-answered ones.. Thanks

my 40 has it on the neck plate, and i have a 100 coming (should have been here today, grrrr) that looks it has it printed on the headstock, when i refinish it i'm thinking stamping it in to the headstock would be a better idea.
